The interior looks to be improved, making the entry-level Audi quite nice...somewhat similar layout as the R8, driver-focused but the screen is up higher on the A4. Outside, it's evolutionary, better than the previous A4 and now more like the A6...ok.

I love every single new Audi of late. I would probably buy any one of them over the competition. The Q7, the A5, the R8... every one of them gets my pick over their competition. But, this A4, it's just so BLAND, so boring. The A5 is similarly 'bland' but still elegant and has fantastic proportions, especially in real life. Like the A6, the A4 is just proportionally... not so attractive, and comes off as incredibly bland and just not spectacular. Audi knows how to make not only two doors, but WAGONS look sexy as hell; they really need to learn how to make their four doors look good too.

Like I said, I enjoy the clean-cut surfaces of every single Audi... except for the A4 and the A6. Their sedans just have wrong proportions; the A6 looks like a boat, what with it's ridiculous overhangs. And the A4... I dunno. Maybe if the belt line were higher, the door handles places further up...
